Albert Leimer Foundation – We sponsor science and research in the Augsburg region

The Albert Leimer Foundation was founded in 1986, and since then it has supported science and research in technical fields, natural sciences, and economic science at the University of Augsburg and at the University of Applied Sciences in Augsburg.

Here, the foundation performs numerous activities to help both individual students as well as specific projects and workshops. The goal of the Albert Leimer Foundation is to support – as unbureaucratically as possible – forward-looking ideas that tie in with the principles and objectives of the Foundation. In addition, every year grants are awarded for talks and lectures, financial assistance is granted to help students prepare their doctoral theses, and guest professorships or guest lectures are supported.

ELCARE – The foundation for our employees, their families, and the people at E+L's sites around the world.
